This is really awesome! I had always just assumed the servers ran on Windows NT or similar. I'm not really sure why I thought that. Maybe because SphereServer and RunUO are/were for Windows so the association stuck in my head? But

My understanding (based on some old blog posts[1]) is that while there's no (published) formal grammar there's definitely a set of internal rules that WoTC uses for determining how things are phrased. What is considered "tech

If I'm honest with myself, part of what really attracted me to hardcore punk as a teenager was the risk of violence at shows. It's rare that anyone gets seriously injured, but there's almost always this sense of tension and l

The Judge show in Austin at The Mohawk during Fun Fun Fun Fest 2013 was one of the best things I've ever seen. It was inside, so in a room that's about 20 feet by 25 feet, with a 2.5 foot stage. Completely packed with people. As s

This release is doubly exciting for me because it means my copy of the Programming Elixir book should be shipping very soon! I think I can very closely relate to Dave Thomas when he expressed his excitement about Elixir and how similar it w

Funny you should ask. I actually started giving an honest go at learning Haskell before I started learning Erlang and later Elixir. So for me, I wouldn't say they were as eye opening as Haskell (truthfully Common Lisp and Scheme gave m

I use it for some minor automation tasks at work (munging data in files and the like). That's one of the coolest things about Elixir in my opinion; it's great for the kind of stuff you used to use Perl for, while still being fanta

In general great effort is made to ensure that probes don't contain any biological contaminates so if we do discover signs of life we're very certain it wasn't a microbe that hitched a ride. As far as contamination from drill

I think it's actually worse than that. Obviously I have only anecdotal evidence, but as far as I can tell, a large minority (maybe even a small majority) of people support what the NSA has been doing. They don't necessarily unders

This is exactly the reason why pretty much every house show no longer gets its location listed on Facebook or on flyers where I live. Instead we just put "ask a punk" for the address. You have to be in the know or you won't find out. Unfort
